lotion!
There are unlimited possible
combinations that you can use to make your own shea butter lotion. These are
some general instruction ideas; but you can change this around to create your
own special blends.
What you'll need:
- 1 lb. or 80% of unrefined shea
butter
- 3 oz. or 19% grape seed
oil, virgin
coconut oil, neem
oil. shea nut
oil, or a combination of these or other natural
oils.
- 1 oz. or 1% of vitamin E oil
- Fragrance oil
Put all your ingredients together
except for the fragrance oil. Heat in a microwave or hot water bath until
softened. (Make sure not to melt the ingredients, when heating in a microwave
try 20 second intervals.) When soft mix with a blender starting low speed and
then higher until whipped, as the shea butter is whipped it may turn a green
color, and then when whipped completely will look light and creamy. Add the
fragrance oil and mix by hand for a few minutes and then blend to completely mix
in the fragrance.
